Consulting Services

Channel Consulting

Having had a successful sales, partner management and leadership career in the technology industry for over 25 years, I work with organisations to build the perfect ecosystem go-to-market value propositions.

Using my extensive knowledge of the IT channel and proven track record of building global award-winning partner practises, I work with organisations who want to understand the UK, EMEA and global partner dynamics.

Having been a member of numerous Partner Advisory Boards, including IDC, I have an extensive network of senior-level contacts across Vendors, Distributors and MSPs. Utilising this network, I work with organisations that want to accelerate their relationships with strategic partners in the UK.

Corporate Consulting and Advisory

Having led a Partner Management and Marketing division with revenue responsibility of over $1.1bn, which grew organically and through acquisition, I work with organisations to help them navigate the growing pains that come with growing and scaling out an organisation.

Highly experienced in re-structuring teams, making them "best in class", and understanding the challenges faced when integrating processes, roles and groups created by mergers and acquisitions.

Having also been part of the global integration team, responsible for the integration of Kelway, a UK and International business with CDW, the world's most prominent global IT solution provider, having first-hand experience with integrations across different cultures and geographies.

I had the pleasure of working with Yvonne across many years whilst I was with Cisco, through various iterations of the partnership with Kelway and then CDW. Yvonne always stood out as a leader and a role model - through her courage, her empathy, her drive and her sensitivity.

She redefined each and every role that she took, but never lost her authenticity - she has kept her edge, always keenly focused upon delivering for the business whilst also improving the culture for those around her. Never one to duck out fo a difficult conversation, Yvonne manages both conflict and uncertainty very well, and always with good grace.

An asset to any leadership team, Yvonne is someone who continuously challenges herself and others, invests in her own development, encourages others to do the same and provided highly effective, practical mentoring to those finding their feet. I would wholeheartedly and without hesitation recommend Yvonne.
